Pennzoil regular 2 stroke oil. As in not synthetic or a synthetic blend.

To add a bit if fuel to the fire, anyone have opinions on synthetic? I run Penn 100% in my Merc race engines (outboards) with the plated cylinders, and it works great. I run 30:1 but it runs close to 8000rpms. No problem with carbon deposits...

For two strokes, I've been running Citco Sea and Snow since Pennsoil got to be ridiculously priced. It works good for me. Leni kind of sold it for me when he said him and his friends got a 55 gallon barrel for everything 2 stroke that they own. If it worked good on snowmobiles turning 7000-9000 rpm, it should be good in my engine cruising around at 5500 rpm or less. Running aereshell 100 in the Jabiru since the overhaul/rebuild though.

Was running Citgo sea and snow at 50:1 when running the oil injector. Carboned up the Pistons to the point of almost stuck rings. Engine had approx 250 hrs. Had it run another 50, rings definitely would have stuck. Decarboned engine and removed injector to run premix now with 25ish hrs. Using Amsoil Saber at 100:1. Really like it! Engine runs smoother, I go through less oil, don't have to carry as much oil, exhaust less smokey. Same cost as Citgo per gallon of gas. The technician at Leaf recommended this oil.
